**Instant Air Dashing** ((AKA **IAD**)) is the act of [[universaltech:jumping]] then instantly [[universaltech:dashing|air dashing]]. This removes the slowdown that happens at the end of each regular dash.

The **IAD** only costs one bar of [[universaltech:stamina]]. 

Without items, an **IAD** is slower than a regular dash, air dash and [[universaltech:dash jumping]]. However, with the <vitality> <color green>Vitality</color> Item [[itemtech:Superior Stamina]], and combined with [[universaltech:Slide Bunnyhopping]], **IAD** becomes significantly faster and travels further. 

Dashing once gives a substantial amount of speed and distance for one bar; a good **IAD** with slide bunnyhopping can give the distance of a dash jump with half the stamina cost. Air Dashing twice increases the peak speed from the speed of a regular dash to ~900 u/s and the distance to around two dash jumps.

**IAD**’s also can give a small amount of momentum to abilities if timed correctly.
